    When IT Changes Go Wrong: Lessons in Change Management | Intelligence Quest Ep. 6

    n this episode of the Intelligence Quest Podcast, Travis and Tylor dive into the often-overlooked realities of IT infrastructure change and why change management is critical to keeping systems — and people — running smoothly. From software updates and hardware replacements to user adoption and operational disruptions, they share real-world examples of what happens when changes go right… and when they don’t. The conversation explores the importance of testing outside production, maintaining clear documentation, implementing reliable backup and disaster recovery strategies, and planning for the human side of technology transitions. As systems grow more complex and environments evolve faster than ever, this episode highlights how thoughtful change management reduces risk, improves resilience, and helps organizations recover when the unexpected happens.

    Client-Server: Stability, Failure, Real-World Tradeoffs | the Intelligence Quest Podcast Ep. 5

    In this episode of the Intelligence Quest Podcast, Travis and Tylor explore one of the most foundational ideas in modern computing: client-server architecture. From early networked systems to today’s cloud-hosted services, client-server models underpin nearly everything we use online. But while cloud platforms promise high availability and resilience, real-world failures remind us that stability is never guaranteed. This episode examines how client-server systems evolved, where they break down, and why service level agreements often fall short when outages occur. The conversation moves beyond theory into real operational impact — discussing high-profile failures, the risks of over-reliance on cloud providers, and why stability and reliability are non-negotiable in industrial and manufacturing environments. Travis and Tylor also contrast traditional client-server systems with closed-loop architectures, highlighting how different design models serve different operational needs. Throughout the episode, they emphasize the importance of data management, monitoring, and preserving institutional knowledge, showing how understanding past technologies helps engineers make better decisions about the future.

    Trusting Data, Managing Risk, and Making Better Engineering Decisions Ep. 4

    In this episode of the Intelligence Quest Podcast, Travis and Tylor discuss how engineers use data to troubleshoot systems, manage risk, and make informed decisions. They explore the challenges of data overload, the importance of trust and context in data analysis, and how risk appetite and alert thresholds shape real-world engineering outcomes. The conversation highlights how modern engineers must adapt to evolving data tools while balancing reliability, security, and operational efficiency.

    Ep. 3 Network Segmentation

    What began as a tool for efficiency and traffic management has evolved into a critical security control, especially in a world filled with smart devices, IoT systems, and always-connected services. From home networks packed with consumer devices to enterprise environments protecting sensitive resources, segmentation now sits at the core of defense-in-depth strategies. This conversation explores how interconnected systems introduce new attack surfaces, why reverse engineering of IoT devices exposes real-world vulnerabilities, and how layered security controls — including multi-factor authentication — help limit blast radius when something goes wrong. Travis and Tylor also emphasize the importance of teaching networking concepts with proper context, making complex ideas more approachable and applicable to real environments. This episode blends technical fundamentals with practical examples, showing why segmentation isn’t just a best practice — it’s a necessity.
